Yes, this is how many mag owners including myself have their macro/ss hose set up like that right now. There are no problems whatsoever resulting from this type of setup.

You can have problems if you aren't running HPA. First, retro and X valves require HPA to run, no CO2. Second, if you do have a classic valve which allows for CO2, you don't want liquid CO coming into your valve. So, if you have your tank run horizontally, don't tip it forward and fire a couple of times. You'll be replacing a bunch of orings.

The only thing you should add is a quick release or Pro connect so you can easily disconnect the line and remove the valve for maintainance.

ehh thats not neccessary, i dont have qd fittings on my line and the valve can still be removed and maintained properly while it is still connected to the line. Considering that u would be hooking up the line from ur drop to the valve, you will have a gernerous amount of hose to work with giving you an ample amount of slack to work on ur valve without interference. But, if you plan on using a gas through grip then you will almost certainly need qd fittings on ur air line to remove your valve.

if u hook it up with macro line, be sure not to disconnect the macro and connect it back alot. this tends to wear out the hose for some reason
